First off all, i appreciate the effort! Shame i have no programming knowledge whatsoever to help more in htat regard :(

I used cardtricks on a 512mb card, formatted it, made it bootable and used the chdk -> card part, locked it, inserted into camera and pressed play.

Just got a No Image, Card Locked notice, nothing else happens unfortunately.

Added LED code to the  Loader code - it doesn't get much more basic than this.  Hopefully we can get a couple of people to try it and report results here.

Is this now ready for use with sd980 v. 1.01c ?

I load it (format card - make bootable aso.) but - shitt happens - nothing.

I think the camera only works with ps.fi2 and is not able to start in automodus with diskboot.bin ?!?

Supposed to be. Just trying to help out here - I don't have the camera so there is only so much I can do.

Do any of the LED's come on - especially the AF LED on the front of the camera ?  Are you starting the camera by pressing the Play button pn the back ?  I think I read somewhere that you might need to do that rather than pressing the on/off button on top.

Diskboot.bin works for the 1.00c firmware.   Seems unlikely it doesn't work for the 1.01c.

I pressed the Play button and the power on. It will be the same. Is thomething wrong because the cam has a touch screen?

I guess I stuck unless somebody else can get it to boot.  The camera should work - there is a working port for firmware 1.00c

Well,

since there aren't many leds on the camera it shouldn't be hard to see if it works or not.

i reformatted and made the card bootable, just to be sure, but the only thing i get is just 3 green flashes, but they always come when the play button is pressed at poweroff.

so, im afraid to say it doesn't work also :((

As a test,  I cut and pasted the code I added to the SD980 loader and boot.c files into the SD940 camera files (I have one of those).  The resulting LED pattern is really slow and obvious - you could not possibly miss it if it runs.

The SD980 boot loader code and LED addresses are identical to the SD940 so I tried booting that DISKBOOT.BIN file.  Nothing happened - just like everyone here has reported.  Strange - I should have at least seen the boot LED pattern.

Time to dig a little deeper I guess.

Update :  I took the SD980 boot source code and used it as a the boot source code for the SD940.  Works fine for the SD940. Somewhere I have address wrong in the build files I'm thinking.

OK, i'm back. haven't had time to do another 8G dump, but looks like it's not necessary?

@waterwingz, just d'loaded the 0.9.9TEST3 version, will load and test now.  it looks like i'm looking for led flashes if chdk doesn't run?

Progress !   Not being able to boot at all does not make any sense.   So with a little digging I noticed an underscore ( _ ) character in front of NEED_ENCODED_DISKBOOT in makefile.inc.   That would pretty much explain everything right there.   So here's a rebuild - see if this flys now ?
